Partly Facetious: 27-member committee will be a non-starter

"Yousuf Raza Gilani has stated that women must be empowered."
"How does he define empowerment?"
"What a silly question! Empowerment of women does not require a definition, but if you insist then let me tell you it means allowing nearly half the people of this country to take informed decisions with respect to their daily lives."
"It doesn't mean having a single woman on the 27-member body that would review the constitution?"
"Isn't Fehmida Mirza slotted to chair that committee?"
"Her name is not one of the 27."
"Ah well, an oversight. Besides let me tell you that there is no time limit for the deliberations of the committee and therefore it's a non-starter."
"I resent that. I resent the fact that the politicians think we are all so stupid that we won't be able to assess their intent to end the amendments that concentrated power in the office of the President who constitutionally should be a ceremonial Head of State."
"Fauzia Wahab I believe says there must be a balance in power between the president and the prime minister."
"And by that statement you know who she considers her boss."
"Don't be facetious."
"OK but this angered Gilani who said what Fauzia Wahab says does not matter."
"Ah but its not as if Gilani can fire her."
"No but he can use it as a bargaining chip in future and..."
"To be honest I don't think Fauzia means that much to the president either. She was not the first tier appointee."
"That's true she's not like Rehman Malik."
"And Naek and Raja Parvez Ashraf."
"OK there are quite a few which is why in Naudero the President said that many uncles and aunties of Bilawal have not abandoned Bilawal and his father."
"I heard Bilawal calls Nawaz Sharif uncle as well."
"Don't be facetious."
